> PureCOLOR doesn't check enabled/disabled status

No worries then, I'll handle it myself for now.

So, consider this a feature request then?

Any chance that PureCOLOR could support coloring these gadgets?
I can set the color of the calender when I click the down-arrow to
expand it, but I need to set the color of them in the state they're
in at startup.

Code: Select all

If OpenWindow(0,200,200,200,100,"Calendar Colors",#PB_Window_SystemMenu)
  If CreateGadgetList(WindowID(0))
    d=Date()
    DateGadget(0,10,10,90,21,"",d)
    DateGadget(1,10,40,90,21,"",Date(Year(d),Month(d),Day(d),0,0,0),#DTS_TIMEFORMAT)
    Repeat : Until WaitWindowEvent()=#PB_Event_CloseWindow
  EndIf
EndIf

I have no experience with calendar gadgets, I will have to do some research.
I'll add it to the wish list.

You're going to hate me now that I've started using your lib, gnozal.

Run this with XP skins enabled, and move the mouse over the tabs.
The text on them disappears. The Help file says SetGadgetColor can
be used with all gadgets except buttons, so...

Code: Select all

; Make sure XP Skins are enabled!

If OpenWindow(0, 200, 200, 200, 200, "",#PB_Window_SystemMenu)

  CreateGadgetList(WindowID(0))

  PanelGadget(0, 8, 8, 180, 180)
    AddGadgetItem (0, -1, "Panel 1")
    AddGadgetItem (0, -1, "Panel 2")
    AddGadgetItem (0, -1, "Panel 3")
  CloseGadgetList()
  
  PureCOLOR_SetGadgetColor(0, #PB_Gadget_BackColor, #Red)

  Repeat : Until WaitWindowEvent()= #PB_Event_CloseWindow

EndIf

I know, there are lots of issues with XP Skins ...
I didn't invest much time in PureCOLOR since PB4 because now there are genuine PB color functions ... Except for menus, but I didn't know it was gonna change in PB4.20 !
Concerning panelgadgets : I have some XP skin compatible code for coloring panel tabs (it is used in jaPBe) but I didn't have time implementing it in PureCOLOR.
And I could disable XP themes for some gadgets so they would work like in classic GUI.

I love this utility!

XP Skin support not enabled.

PB4.2 though...

I do have one issue... at times when a button is colored, in a new window, it will all be BLACK.

This only happens on a button where there are different colors for UP and DOWN states.

I have about 20 buttons colored this way across 5 windows.

have moved the purecolor statements fomr the procedure to open the window (where I had them at the end of the procedure) to the place after the windows are opened before starting the main loop of the program. It seems to make no difference.

Only cure is to switch back to simple color of font and button and not have a different state for depressed...

Could you post some working code that shows the problem ?

Any chance to have a PureColor library for PB 4.20 ? I have some strange behaviour with PB4.20b2 and PureColor 4.10 with PureColor_Version() : When I use Purecolor_Version() with messagerequester, openwindow, or others, text which is before purecolor_version is not printed.

Example :
MessageRequester("Purecolor 4.10","PureColor : "+PureCOLOR_Version()+" - "+" Tag : "+Date$+" - "+dbpath$,#PB_Window_MinimizeGadget|#PB_Window_ScreenCentered|#PB_Window_SizeGadget) : doesn't print "PureColor : "
MessageRequester("Purecolor 4.10","PureColor : "+" - "+" Tag : "+Date$+" - "+dbpath$,#PB_Window_MinimizeGadget|#PB_Window_ScreenCentered|#PB_Window_SizeGadget) : It's OK.

I have to wait for the next PB4.20 beta ... http://www.purebasic.fr/english/viewtopic.php?t=30803

Code: Select all

MessageRequester("Purecolor 4.10","PureColor : "+PureCOLOR_Version()+" - "+" Tag : "+Date$+" - "+dbpath$,#PB_Window_MinimizeGadget|#PB_Window_ScreenCentered|#PB_Window_SizeGadget); : doesn't print "PureColor : "

Works here with PB4.10.
And if you store PureCOLOR_Version() in a variable ?

Code: Select all

Version$ = PureCOLOR_Version()
MessageRequester("Purecolor 4.10","PureColor : "+Version$+" - "+" Tag : "+Date$+" - "+dbpath$,#PB_Window_MinimizeGadget|#PB_Window_ScreenCentered|#PB_Window_SizeGadget); : doesn't print "PureColor : "

Yes it works with pb 4.10. problem appears only with pb 4.20b2

And it works with purecolor_version() stored in a variable... But it's weird. The title in messagerequester is stored on the upper right blue banner (near the cross 'X' to close the window), instead of the upper left...

HI,

does anyone know. how to color the Menutitles? As you can see, they are white...

Code: Select all

If OpenWindow(0, 200, 200, 200, 100,"PureCOLOR Menu", #PB_Window_SystemMenu|#PB_Window_TitleBar) 
  ;  
  If CreateMenu(0, WindowID(0)) 
    MenuTitle("File") 
    PureCOLOR_MenuItem(0, 1,"New"+Chr(9)+"Ctrl+N")
    PureCOLOR_MenuItem(0, 2,"&Open"+Chr(9)+"Ctrl+O", Icon1) 
    PureCOLOR_MenuItem(0, 4,"&Save As..."+Chr(9)+"Ctrl+A")
    MenuBar()
    PureCOLOR_MenuItem(0, 5,"Exit")
    MenuTitle("Edit") 
    PureCOLOR_MenuItem(0, 6,"Copy"+Chr(9)+"Ctrl+C")
    MenuTitle("Edit") 
    PureCOLOR_MenuItem(0, 7,"Copy"+Chr(9)+"Ctrl+C")
    ;
    PureCOLOR_SetMenuOptions(0, -1, -1, RGB(0,0,255), #Black, RGB(87, 162, 96), -1, -1, -1, -1)
    ;
    PureCOLOR_ActivateColoredMenu(0)
    PureCOLOR_SetMenuOptions(0, -1, -1, #Green, -1, -1, #Red, -1, -1, -1)
  EndIf
  ;  
  Repeat
    Event = WaitWindowEvent()
    If Event = #PB_Event_CloseWindow 
      Break
    ElseIf Event = #PB_Event_Menu
      Debug EventMenu()
    EndIf
  ForEver
  ;
EndIf

This one is not working with PureColor.....

No problem here with '#PureCOLOR_BackgroundImage demo' and PB4.10 ; did you use the PB4.10 PureCOLOR version http://freenet-homepage.de/gnozal/PureCOLOR__.zip ?
